MEDIA LOSER: Tucker Carlson Tucker Carlson dismissed news that the U.S. had killed the leader of Al Qaeda and instead spent Monday's show arguing that President Joe Biden wants to "weaken and destroy the United States.” “If you’re Joe Biden, if you think about it, it takes a lot of brass to brag about Afghanistan,” began Carlson. He went on to call Biden’s withdrawal from the country the “single most humiliating moment in American foreign policy since the fall of Saigon in April of 1975," adding that he chose "a path that seemed designed to inflict maximum damage to the interests of the United States." "Tonight, Biden gave a speech boasting that he’s killed an Al Qaeda figure in Afghanistan. Great. Feel safer? Of course you don’t," he continiued. "Nobody does. And the reason nobody feels safer is Biden’s response to the disaster in Afghanistan." Carlson conveniently ignored that Al Qaeda leader Ayman Al Zawahiri, killed by a CIA drone strike in Afghanistan over the weekend, was one of the masterminds behind the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Instead of celebrating the nation's counterterrorism victory, Carlson went on to accuse Biden of "provoking yet another conflict," claiming the president was the catalyst behind Vladimir Putin’s deadly invasion of Ukraine. “They wanted a war with Russia, and now we have one. We’re not winning that war. By the way, the main American casualty so far has been our economy, which is dying,” he said. Later in the show, Carlson spun a similarly unsound yarn, declaring that Biden is trying to provoke a war in China in an effort to “destroy” the U.S. |
